After Yannian finished speaking, he looked at Danfeng with a flickering look in his eyes, betting everything on this moment.

"Where is Nian Yan, who are you?"

"What's the relationship with Nian Yan?" Dan Feng suppressed his anxiety and verified the truth of Yannian's words. He only needed to return to his residence and take out the token to check.

"——Who am I? Why did I temporarily seize control of Fu Sheng's body?"

Yannian paused.

"I won't tell you until you completely trust me. The token of his whereabouts is right there. You'll know the truth once you check it." Yannian looked calm, but he was quite panicked inside. However, at this moment he could only try his best.

"Hmph, playing tricks--" Dan Feng's face didn't show any fluctuation, but there was a hint of depth in his eyes.

Dan Feng pushed the door open and said before leaving, "You'd better not lie to me."

There was a loud bang, which caused the door frame to tremble slightly, and the wind chimes on the eaves swayed violently, making a crisp "ding-dong" sound.

"What a hassle... I guess it's only after he reads the token that things will go from negative to zero," Yannian whispered, shrugging helplessly.

Seeing Dan Kun sleeping soundly with his legs spread out, Yan Nian smiled, "It's good to be heartless. Just fall asleep right away."

"What are you talking about? It's so late and you're still not asleep."

"The door is still open, so you won't have to worry about catching a cold."

Dan Yu's figure appeared in front of the door that was half-closed in the moonlight. Seeing that it was Dan Kun sleeping on the bed, he frowned slightly, really unable to distinguish the primary from the secondary.

But only Fusheng would treat Dankun like this, and it seems that he has got what he deserves, Danyu is certain in his heart.

On two other occasions, his plan was nearly complete.

"It's okay, teacher. I'm just going to rest. It's getting late. You should rest early too."

Yannian extinguished the candle, closed the door gently, and tilted his head to look at Danyu. His teacher had a smile on his face, but his dark pupils could not reflect his figure.

"Teacher... I was a little impulsive at the banquet just now." Yannian spoke slowly.

"Did something happen?"

"Fusheng, you can tell me anything and I will help you solve it." Dankun's tone became a little heavier, revealing his worry.

"It's nothing, teacher. I just felt like I had a strange dream. There were many people whispering in the dream. It gave me a headache. For a moment, I couldn't figure out... where exactly I was."

"Those memories seem to be devouring me. Even with my own medical skills, I can't see anything."

Yannian pretended to be confused and did not mention the soul swap, in order to trick Danyu into talking.

Yannian wanted to find out whether the soul swap was conditional like what happened with Yingxing, or whether it was man-made.

"Dream?"

"No wonder you've been listless today. It must have been a nightmare. I'll make you some calming incense later."

"Don't be afraid, Fusheng. With your teacher here, tonight will definitely be a sweet dream. I'll take care of the banquet for now." Danyu gently held Yannian in his arms, like a father.

"Um...thank you, teacher."

No useful information was obtained. In a corner where Danyu couldn't see, Yannian frowned.

In a corner where Yannian couldn't see, the smile on Danyu's lips gradually cooled.

On the other side, Dan Feng returned to his previous residence. The floor was dusty and the cat's bed was next to the bed.

He hid his keepsake here, which was just an ordinary string of Qiongshi birds.

After finding the box, taking out the token and removing the seal, Dan Feng picked up the Qiongshi bird string, hesitated for a moment, but still gently broke it open.

What’s the point of keeping a keepsake if you can’t find your old friends or fulfill your promises?

A hint of sweetness instantly spread to his nose through the gap. Dan Feng's eyes trembled. It was true. He had never known this.

but--

But did Fusheng really fail to peek into Dragon Ancestor’s memory with that shot?

That shot had deeply affected him. Now that he had calmed down and thought carefully, it seemed... someone's shadow was there. There was his, and there was... his?

Dan Feng's thoughts were in a mess. He didn't understand what he was thinking. For some reason, he felt that this shot was created by himself and was originally fired by himself.

It’s really strange. It’s all Fu Sheng’s fault. He is completely confused now.

"I don't understand at all, what does it mean?" Dan Feng was in an annoyed mood. He subconsciously lay down on the cat bed and ate a mouthful of dust.

Day two.

Yannian sorted out the lesson plan and checked the system's favorability, which was stable at minus 480. It was really a good number. Dying early was not enough, but dying late was more than enough.

"Boss, why are you torturing Dan Feng so early?" Dan Kun yawned and skillfully sorted out a series of poisons.

"What number of reagent do you want to bring today? Didn't we agree on a slogan yesterday? What do you mean by knocking me out?"

Dankun put the medicine box on the table with a complaining look in his eyes, then picked up the comb, walked behind Yannian, and combed his curled hair.

"Have you forgotten? Dan Kun, you can't beat Dan Feng. If you stay awake, you will affect my output. I can only knock you out and throw you away." Yannian responded perfunctorily and took a sip of tea.

Dan Kun's mouth twitched. "Although it's the truth, but Boss, I think you could have been more subtle."

"After all, I was once selected as one of the outstanding flowers of the Vajra—the reserve talent."

"Stop, this is already in the past." Yannian made a stop gesture and left with the book.

"Don't disbelieve me, that year, during the autumn rain and apricot blossoms, Dan Feng and I really fought back and forth."

Dan Kun leaned his hands on the windowsill, trying desperately to save his image. He shouted wildly, causing the window frame to tremble slightly.

Yannian laughed dumbly and gave a disdainful look in response, "Useless is useless, no need to quibble."

He followed the path to Danfeng's residence, but found that Danfeng was not there. Yannian had an idea and moved to the place where they used to live.

The door was not closed. I walked in and saw a young boy lying on the clean cat bed. There were small water droplets on the counters everywhere, as if they had just been cleaned. The air was filled with a damp smell.

A soft beam of light passed through the window and fell on the cat's nest. The boy in the nest was curled up and sleeping soundly. The ends of his hair were dyed light gold, and his curled eyelashes cast a faint shadow in the sunlight.

It took me a long time to finally see you like this.

Yannian walked gently to the cat's bed and, just like before, wanted to reach out and pull the quilt that had slipped off.

When their fingertips were about to touch, Dan Feng pushed them away.

"What are you doing? Stay away from me." Dan Feng said with a cold expression and sat up.

Yannian was not annoyed. He withdrew his hand and looked calmly, "How is it? After a night of thinking, have you calmed down?"

"I only care about where Nian Yan is."

"I can't tell you now."

"why?"

"You won't find it even if I tell you."

"What do you mean?" Dan Feng said with a stern expression, his chin slightly raised, and a dissatisfied tone.

"Has the soul of the floating life fallen asleep? You have merged with its soul."

“You can think of it that way.”

Yannian was too lazy to explain the current situation. As long as Danfeng didn't make such a firm conclusion and just yelled at him, "You thief," there would still be room for recovery.

"I know you have a lot of questions. How about this, Danfeng? Starting today, for every hundred books you finish studying as I've stipulated... I'll tell you a story. How about that?"

“The story is the answer.”

Yannian smiled, sat on the cat bed, took a long breath, and his eyelashes covered the fatigue in his eyes.

Maybe he has always hoped that there is someone who can see through everything about him.

No matter what the truth is, Dan Feng will die in the end, taking everything with him.
